Book excerpt: Due to social, political, environmental, and economic factors, solving urban traffic congestion through freeway construction is not likely. Development of a new arterial street class, called regional arterial, or super street, as a means of increasing urban network capacity and reducing congestion, is a feasible alternative. A long term staged improvement program for an arterial street, Congress Avenue, in Austin, Texas is presented. Based upon anticipated future traffic growth along the IH35 corridor, time lines for Congress Avenue improvements are developed. The effectiveness of the arterial in maintaining desirable travel speeds and diverting freeway traffic is evaluated.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Virtually all aspects of arterial street performance are dominated by traffic signal operation. Efficiency of signal operations is synonymous with green intervals having exactly the correct duration. That is, greens that are too short or too long can significantly reduce operational efficiency by causing traffic delays to traffic streams using the intersection. Green interval duration is dependent upon many things, but two of the most significant are queue start-up time and intervehicle headways. These two highly significant traffic flow parameters have been measured through a carefully designed field testing program. Estimates of appropriate parameter values are developed. Actual variation of both parameters across a wide range of geometric, traffic, and other conditions was captured. Predictive models are developed and their use in signal timing optimization is described.

Book excerpt: The concept of a collector-distributor lane system as part of a regional arterial street improvement program is introduced. Such a system can improve operational aspects of certain urban arterial streets by provision of a transitional space between through-traffic streams and entering-exiting streams. Facilities for which this concept is most applicable, are arterial streets along which development has occurred that is inconsistent with the arterial street primary function which is, according to the 1990 American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials policy, through travel and major circulation movement. For the comprehensive regional arterial program, as well as the collector-distributor system, the acquisition of additional right-of-way is regarded as cost and/or time prohibitive. The idea of exclusive right-turn lanes along arterials is covered in some detail, and many reports recognize the applicability of right-most lane to separate turning and slower moving vehicles from through traffic. Issues that have potentially significant impacts on design and operation of urban arterials are described, specifically, those that pertain to the design and implementation of collector-distributor lanes. Benefits of converting an existing through-traffic lane into a collector-distributor lane are identified, criteria for implementation of a collector-distributor lane are described, and recommended design standards and procedures are presented.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the latest advances in research and development, design, operation and analysis of transportation systems and their complementary infrastructures. It reports on both theories and case studies on road and rail, aviation and maritime transportation. The book covers a wealth of topics, from accident analysis, vehicle intelligent control, and human-error and safety issues to next-generation transportation systems, model-based design methods, simulation and training techniques, and many more. A special emphasis is given to smart technologies and automation in transport, as well as to user-centered, ergonomic and sustainable design of transport systems. The book, which is based on the AHFE 2016 International Conference on Human Factors in Transportation, held on July 27-31, 2016, in Walt Disney World®, Florida, USA, mainly addresses transportation system designers, industrial designers, human-computer interaction researchers, civil and control engineers, as well as vehicle system engineers. Moreover, it represents a timely source of information for transportation policy-makers and social scientists dealing with traffic safety, management, and sustainability issues in transport.

This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 1211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Present Your Research to the World! The World Congress 2009 on Medical Physics and Biomedical Engineering – the triennial scientific meeting of the IUPESM - is the world’s leading forum for presenting the results of current scientific work in health-related physics and technologies to an international audience. With more than 2,800 presentations it will be the biggest conference in the fields of Medical Physics and Biomedical Engineering in 2009! Medical physics, biomedical engineering and bioengineering have been driving forces of innovation and progress in medicine and healthcare over the past two decades. As new key technologies arise with significant potential to open new options in diagnostics and therapeutics, it is a multidisciplinary task to evaluate their benefit for medicine and healthcare with respect to the quality of performance and therapeutic output. Covering key aspects such as information and communication technologies, micro- and nanosystems, optics and biotechnology, the congress will serve as an inter- and multidisciplinary platform that brings together people from basic research, R&D, industry and medical application to discuss these issues. As a major event for science, medicine and technology the congress provides a comprehensive overview and in–depth, first-hand information on new developments, advanced technologies and current and future applications. With this Final Program we would like to give you an overview of the dimension of the congress and invite you to join us in Munich! Olaf Dössel Congress President Wolfgang C.
